3 Top in its class with three dynamic ranges. Alive and well, the non-tiring KENWOOD tone keeps you listening. RECEIVER Local oscillator realizes superior C/N Diverse interference / noise removal features 110dB* 3rd intermodulation dynamic range (3rd IMDR) measured under punishing 2kHz spacing conditions. 114dB* reciprocal mixing dynamic range (RMDR). 150dB* Blocking dynamic range (BDR) All features deliver top-class receive performance. The high-performance DSP displays its prowess during interference-signal control, sound-quality adjustment, and digital operation. Interference signal exclusion is not determined by roofing filters and signal system devices alone. The TS-890S has taken the VCO division of the TS-990S and developed it further, combining a VCO device with high C/N in the gigahertz band and a reference oscillation circuit with superior adjacent C/N to deliver C/N characteristics unattainable in conventional units MHz 100 MHz ± 0.1 ppm TCXO 1 st local oscillator frequency generation when receiving at 14.1 MHz PLL MHz MHz 1 PLL st local oscillator frequency VCO Div.2 Div.1 IF filter Passband frequency range expansion through LOW-CUT/HI-CUT, WIDTH/SHIFT. Interfering signal removal and desired audio-quality adjustment, as well as more convenient operation in digital mode. Operation with LOW-CUT / HI-CUT in SSB/AM/FM mode, WIDTH/ SHIFT in CW mode, and WIDTH function in FSK/PSK mode. Change to WIDTH/SHIFT operation as in CW mode also possible in SSB/SSB- DATA mode. Selection of roofing filter (270Hz*/500Hz/2.7kHz/6kHz/1 5kHz) can be automatic to match IF filter passband width or manual to selectable frequencies. (*270Hz when option mounted) (*: 2 khz spacing measurement standard - Receiver frequency 14.2 MHz, MODE CW, BW 500 Hz, PRE AMP OFF) Photograph shows optional 270Hz roofing filter installed. [dbc/hz] st Local OSC Phase Noise IF filter shape, AF filter Switching is possible between 3 kinds of IF filter shapes: Medium/ Soft/Sharp. Switching is also possible for post-demodulation voiceaudio between 3 kinds of AF filter passbands: Medium/Wide/ Narrow. Combinations of these settings can adjust the sharpness of the demodulation signal. Receive performance on a whole other level from narrow bandwidth roofing filters that only full down conversion can provide The TS-890S uses 8.248MHz 1st IF frequency down conversion for its receive signal system in order to continue the adjacent interference signal exclusion legacy refined in the TS-990S. This means you can use narrow bandwidth crystal filters with passband widths of 500Hz or 270Hz (optional YG-82CN-1) as roofing filters to achieve strong exclusion of unnecessary adjacent signals. The 1st mixer is the H-mode mixer also carried by the TS-990S. Conversion characteristics have been improved with fine-tuning of input/output matching as well the device used. 120 db 100 db 80 db 60 db 40 db 20 db High-speed scanning with independent band scope receiver 3rd IM Dynamic Range db Frequency Spacing [khz] The configuration of the band scope receiver has changed from the superheterodyne system used in the TS-990S to 1st IF sampling using an A/D converter (14bit/39MHz), and FPGA digital down conversion. This means a change in scanning method from step FFT to FFT, achieving highspeed updates to the display irrespective of span settings.

Popular for its non-tiring and great-quality audio, the IF-AGC has undergone a facelift with a combination of roofing filters and IF filters, and has been designed to enable optimal control under various noise circumstances. For IF DSP, transmitter ADSP For band scope ADSP Other receiver system features RF ATT(OFF/6/12/18dB) Preamp(PRE1/PRE2) Receive only antenna connector(rx IN, RX OUT) Antenna output connector Audio peak filter This is a narrow bandwidth peak filter operated during receive in CW mode. When intelligibility is low due to noise, it has the effect of floating the target signal and increasing intelligibility. The central frequency is linked to the pitch frequency, and can be given a maximum peak gain of +6dB. Notch filter A notch filter that operates in the IF stage. By eliminating strong interfering signals, it allows weak target signals to stand out. Damping range can be switched between three levels: Narrow/Middle/Wide, enabling operation to match interference conditions. Noise reduction function (NR1/NR2) In addition to conventional NR1/NR2 noise reduction, NR1 comes equipped with noise reduction using spectral-subtraction, which focusses on noise reduction in voice-audio system modes. The optimum noise reduction method is applied for each receive mode. Noise blanker A noise blanker reduces crackling, pulse-type noise. The TS-890S includes two kinds of noise blankers: NB1, which processes analogue signals, and NB2, which carries out digital processing in the IF stage using DSP. Furthermore, selection of NB2 can be made from two kinds of NB with different operating principles. Either NB1 or NB2 can be used depending on noise conditions, or both can be used simultaneously. Beat cancel function (BC1/BC2) While a notch filter (IF stage) is effective for a single strong beat, beat cancelling (AF stage) shows results on multiple, comparatively weak beats. BC1 is effective on weak beats and continuous beats, while BC2 is effective on intermittent beats like CW signals. AGC Quick recovery A function to recover from suppression that happens when pulse noise is included in a receive signal. 4 5

4 Evolved power to perform with diverse displays and auto-scroll. A transmitter with stable output, quietness and high speed. Display / Transmitter Filter scope display Expanded touch operation scope The unit carries a high definition 7-inch TFT color display. In addition to a diverse range of display content, the convenient AUTO SCROLL MODE provides strong support for competition or similar operation. Other strengths include clean and stable 100W * transmitter output, improved quietness from twin cooling fans, and high-speed operation enabled by an auto antenna tuner. The popular sub-scope from the TS-990S is carried as a filter scope display. You can confirm receive filter selection status, roofing filter bandwidth, IF filter passband information, receive for ex-audio spectrum, CW pitch frequency, and notch frequency all concentrated in one location. Other display system features CW mode display example SSB mode display example Basic operation of the TS-890S is through knobs and switches with a definite clicking feel rather than touchscreen operation, but the below adjustment features and menu settings can now be changed via touch operation. RX/TX equalizer level adjustment, meter type (analog white / analog black / bar meter) switching, FFT scope/x-y scope switching on RTTY decode screen, FFT scope/ vector scope switching on PSK decode screen, voice-audio file playback position change. Furthermore, with touchscreen tuning, in addition to the conventional CW tuning operation via long-push, a short push enables tuning using steps set via MULTI/CH, while on bands popular with operation in units of 1kHz, practical touch alignment is possible even in SSB. Transmit digital meter enabling display of two kinds of transmit information even during analog meter display Audio scope (spectrum scope, oscilloscope) able to be displayed simultaneously with reduced band scope Band scope IF filter passband with display Change of gradation for waterfall display Frequency marker display function (Max. 50) Transmit spectrum display (during CENTER MODE) SWL display mode Heavy-duty design delivers transmission performance able to withstand long hours of operation. *70 MHz band is 50 W Highly reliable 100W final-stage amplifier circuit. (*70 MHz band is 50 W) Built-in high-speed automatic antenna tuner enabling high-speed operation Operational capacity reinforced with displays and various features A band scope providing ease-of-ease The seven-inch TFT color LCD is the same size as that used in the TS-990S. In addition to basic information including frequency, mode, and S-meter, the band scope and audio scope are also displayed. The TS-890S also displays further improvements in visibility and operability in tough usage scenarios such as competitions. AUTO SCROLL MODE In addition to conventional CENTER MODE and FIXED MODE, the unit comes equipped with an AUTO SCROLL MODE. While in FIXED MODE, if the receive frequency goes over the scope edge, then autoscroll will engage for half a screen width. Furthermore, with the EXPAND function turned on, the screen to be displayed next can be drawn in advance*. Also, with the SHIFT function, the receive marker can be set in the desired position on the vertical grid, which is convenient when displaying a non-receive frequency as the center display, such as for pileups during splits. *: Effective in spans under 200kHz. Image becomes slightly coarse when expanded. Screen 1 Screen 2 Screen 3 With the spectrum scope and waterfall screen display, the analogue meter is simultaneously displayed. The popular sub-scope display from the TS-990S has been incorporated as a filter-scope display Auto-scroll operation (span 10 khz, EXPAND ON) On the current screen (screen 2), if the frequency is changed to go over the top end of screen 2, it will automatically change to screen 3, and if it goes over the bottom end of screen 2, it will automatically change to screen 1. Waterfall screen creation normally commences after switching screens, but with the EXPAND function turned to ON, the display switches to the finished screen. CENTER MODE When changing the receive frequency in CENTER MODE, there are many units that display a bright line that flows obliquely over the waterfall, but with the TS-890S, the bright line remains straight and enables tuning operation*. Switching to the follow display is also possible via the menu. *: During straight display, the waterfall bright line temporarily stops and undergoes parallel displacement. Image becomes slightly coarse when expanded. Straight display Follow display FIXED MODE FIXED MODE allows you to switch between three kinds of display ranges with a single touch of the panel screen. The initial value is preset based on the band plan, but this can be easily adjusted to a desired scope. Improved reference level operability ease-of-use The TS-890S has improved operability of the reference level focusing on the visibility of the waterfall. Through optimization of each span, readjustment is mostly unnecessary when switching between them.* Settings are enabled for each band, and readjustment is also unnecessary for the PRE AMP ON and PRE AMP OFF bands. *: Spectrum scope waveform height changes during span switching. The final-stage amplifier device is a Mitsubishi-made MOSFET RD100HHF1(Pch 176.5W) operating in push-pull. A MOSFET RD16HHF1 has been used for the drive amp, and a MOSFET RD06HHF1 for the pre-drive amp. Inter-stage matching and fine-tuning delivers superior transmit IMD even for a 13.8V final circuit, enabling operation with a clean and low-distortion signal Referrence Level 10.00dBm LowPhNoise FET Pos & Neg points Center MHz Span khz Heavy-duty design with improved quietness The unit employs a twin cooling fan system that uses a pair of 80 x 80 mm fans. Using two fans provides sufficient air flow at low rpm, making for superior quietness. The quietness level for the fans when operating has been improved by more than 5dB compared to our conventional models. Furthermore, the use of an aluminum die-cast chassis combined with a large heat sink makes for a heavy-duty design sufficiently capable of withstanding the tough conditions typical of contests or long hours of hard operation. Other transmit system features 14MHz transmit IMD example (100W output) The position of the heatsink in the center of the rear panel The antenna tuner is a preset type also operable during receive and covering amateur bands from 1.8MHz~70MHz. High-speed operation and the proven relay method enable rapid QSY through instantaneous band changing. The menu can be used to set an ON/ OFF memory for the antenna tuner for each band. Free settings enabled through linear amp control settings menu A variety of linear amp connections have been taken into account, including self-made ones, and independent settings for various kinds of control at HF/50MHz, 70MHz bands are possible. Possible settings include: linear amp ON/OFF, transmission control (H active, L active), transmission delay ON/OFF, transmission delay time (CW/FSK/PSK) and (SSB/AM/FM), internal relay control, and external ALC threshold voltage adjustment. TCXO as standard, high frequency stability at ±0.1 ppm Equipped with a TCXO (temperature compensated crystal oscillator) requiring no warm-up as standard, high stability of ±0.1ppm has been obtained in a wide temperature range covering from 0ºC~+50ºC. External standard signal (10MHz) input is also possible.

5 Delivering the ultimate in split-operation operability. An interface that thinks of everything. A variety of features achieve speedy split operation even with a single receiver. Speedy split frequency settings, split status band switching via a band direct key, and support for external TF watch via an external receiver. A panel layout enabling intuitive handling makes for comfortable operation. Stronger split-operation handling through VFOA/B Split frequency settings In addition to conventional split frequency setting methods, the TS-990S s proven split setting functions have been included. For 2kHz UP, press 2 on the number pad after a long press of the SPLIT key and the settings are complete. Split frequencies can be set within the range of ±9kHz (1kHz steps). Band direct key Band changing possible while keeping split settings for each band (menu setting feature) In the split state, changing the band or band memory via the band direct key will make changes while keeping the split state. Individual settings are possible for the split frequencies and modes for each band memory, which is convenient for chasing DX-peditions during multiband/mode operation. 7MHz band CW 2kHz UP 14MHz band SSB 5kHz UP Operability Split frequency changing (menu setting feature) In addition to the conventional method of operating the tuning knob during TF-SET, when RIT/XIT is not in use, the split frequency can also be changed by operating the RIT/XIT knob. Split frequency receive via external receiver (menu setting feature) By connecting another TS-890S or TS-590S/SG* 1 unit to the ANT OUT connector to use as a sub- receiver* 2 and using the split transfer function A, this can enable assistance in 2-wave simultaneous receive during split operation * 3. TS-890S IF filter A / B /C one-touch switching Three kinds of bandwidth presets and instantaneous switching are possible for IF filters. Switching can also be limited to 2 kinds, so this enables use for wide/ narrow switching. Using the FIL.CLR key, a changed bandwidth can be returned to a preset frequency with a single touch. RX ANT connector COM connector *1: Requires a firmware update. *2: Loss of approximately 3dB (theoretical value) is experienced *3: Frequency transfer, standby, and sub- receiver audio mute are possible. Requires separate antenna cable and RS-232C cross-cable. Not compatible with combined SP/headphone use. TS-590S/SG CW Morse code decode/ encode possible with stand-alone unit The unit is compatible with CW Morse code decode/encode. Transmission of Morse code is possible with text input from a USB keyboard. Combined use of templates sent from message memories and Morse code transmissions via panel is also possible. Dedicated decode filter switching, and functions for transmission logs and output of decoded text to PC are also included. CW decode/encode screen FSK/PSK functions RTTY basic operation settings (keying polarity, shift width, HI/LO tones, reverse mode) Compatible with PSK31 (QPSK, BPSK) and PSK63 (BPSK) RTTY/PSK operation via on-board decoder/encoder (USB keyboard compliant) Message memory function Tuning scope display (audio FFT, waterfall/x-y scope (FSK)/vector scope (PSK)) Compatible with FM operation on 28MHz, 50MHz, and 70MHz bands The unit includes switching to FM narrow for transmit and receive, as well as repeater operation support and FM signaling functionality (CTCSS, cross-tone). DATA mode compatible with external input /output switching Separate from the microphone connector, the back panel includes a variety of I/O interfaces, including analogue audio input and output, USB audio interface, and LAN(VoIP)interface. By combining DATA mode with SSB/FM/AM modes, it is possible to freely set channels for modulation and demodulation. Furthermore, combined use with DATA VOX enables the transmission of modulation signals from a PC, rendering standby wiring and commands unnecessary. Remote operation achieved without host PC Direct remote-control function (KNS) When operating using the KNS (KENWOOD Network Command System), remote operation of the radio as possible by a direct LAN connection. Conventional connection using a host PC and ARHP (Amateur Radio Host Program) is also possible.
